a/n: I-I finished it! Sorry for the RIDICULOUS wait. After I had to go through that whole miserable day of finding the picture when it got deleted my interest in the pic sort of died out. I was afraid I'd fuck it up big time and lose it for good and just... ick. It was rough. But I SWORE to myself that I would get this finished sometime this weekend and HUZZAH! I did!

It's currently 1440x900 pixels because that's my screen size, but if someone wants one that'll fit their screen perfectly just ask me and I'll make one up. Also, I wanted to put words at the bottom like subtitles to a movie, but wasn't sure what I wanted it to say.

Oh and the whole reason I did this picture is because of Cobra Starships "The City is at War". I was listening to it and then drew Johnny there holding his shovel and started filling in a hideous Phi beside him dressed kind of like a mobster and it just evolved from that idea. Also I made a short playlist to listen to while I worked on this picture! The songs on it were both loud and peppy, and soft and ANGSTY. I don't know why.

I basically drew the first one just to play around with male anatomy because I suck at it. Like, I can make my girls all different shapes and sizes, but my dudes tend to come out sort of similar or get stuck in three main body types and I want to get past that.

Um in the second one, it's supposed to be Ripp's body at the upper left. And Tank's the other headless dude in the upper middle area. The rest of the boys are Johnny, plus that little Ripp at the bottom middle. And then there are two Ophelias to the far right.

a/n: WHATEVER MUSE. Apparently you do whatever the fuck you want. WELL I WANTED TO GO TO BED EARLY. YOU WHORE.

So yeah, apparently I'm doing a running theme of 'how many different ways can SHWC characters die without really being dead?'. Don used sex to fill up a hole inside of him, Tank went through his life without really living it, Jill dies on the inside when Buck dies for real.

a/n: Sometimes, I do these things that I know I shouldn't do. Staying up until all hours of the morning to: a) write a 4,000+ word story about Don Lothario or b) go batshit and decide to just fucking color something even though it can definitely wait until morning are NEVER good ideas. I AM SO TIRED.

And I could have waited to post! But by this point I'm like: "FUCK IT WHATEVER MAYBE I'LL WAKE UP TO A COMMENT OR SOMETHING I DUNNO."

And, forgive me now if there's any really stupid errors in the text or anything - I'm so out of it.

Okay so comments on the actual picture:

1) OMG MY SHIPS ARE SHOWING HOW EMBARRASSING I SHOULD COVER THAT UP2) Frances is in purple because of xel_squirgle_ox. DEAL WITH IT.3) I know they weren't all kids together. I don't care. It's ~symbolic~.4) OMG BABIES5) Sorry if your fave didn't make the cut. I hate old people (CIRCE, CURIOUS BROS, SMITH RENTS, GIRLS WHO AREN'T ERIN). Not really, but whatever. I drew my favorites.6) OH GOD I HOPE THE ALIENS DON'T IMPREGNATE THEM7) SENSATIONAL SEVEN8) This song is good

a/n: Okay, definitely lamest thing I've done thus far (I SAY THAT SO MUCH THAT I THINK ITS LOST ITS EFFECT D: ). Honestly, I just wanted to see if I could make a fanmix. I've never done one before and it's taken me forever to figure out how to combine all the songs into one neat little zip file. Though, it's actually REALLY easy to do and I'm kind of a doofus for not figuring it out sooner.

I didn't put every single song I've used as an LJ-cut in here. I cut it down to some of my favorites. Surprisingly the ones I kept all seemed to fit some aspect of the JRO situation.

a/n: I know this is nuts, but I just really wanted to dump these things before they got out of hand. I might still fix up some of the later ones, because they are newer and I like 'em. Especially the Phi and Jill party time picture.

Also the music is actually a total coincidence. It came on just as I was finishing up this entry. Lol!

a/n: I got an icon post brewing in the near future. For now though I've got MOAR STRANGETOWN.

The first is just a bunch of our leads. Ripp - shirtless and sleazy. A happy Johnny. And an Ophelia who doesn't really look like Ophelia. Then Jill with GREEN hair at the bottom, drawn in green, because it's JILL. Then a college Buck.

The second page has got Johnny holding Ripp. Then Phi in a pretty princess dress. Then a purple Johnny with shorter and somewhat tamed hair. The bottom left is more sleazy Ripp and the bottom right is my very favorite. The trio snuggled together, with Johnny tell Jayne to shove off. Clearly, I have no love for Miss Doe.

a/n: You've got an unsure Ripp about to comfort a sobbing Jill. A dancing Ophelia with her braids down (yes, i realize how unlikely it would be that her hair could just whip all around like that). A side view of Tank. And some Jill/Buck? Yes. I definitely think that he has a bit of a thing for her. No Johnny this time.

I obviously favor the kids' storyline over that of the adults. The Nervous plot is interesting, but basically I'm always waiting for more bits into these guys' lives. Especially the trio and Tank.

Fandom/Universe: Strangetown, Here I ComeCharacters: Johnny, Tank, Ophelia, Buck, Ripp, JillNote: I'm using strange_tomato's older versions. Why? BECAUSE I LOVE THEM. Or because the story has me hooked on strangetown and because she's got a lot of easy to find references.

a/n: Just some really basic refs of the characters. I still feel like Tank's needs a lot of work. I like the rest, though Ripp's design is a little iffy along with bits of Ophelia that are kind of off, but Buck and Johnny and Jill seem pretty tight. Just for fun because i'm more of an artist than i am a photographer.
